I received my Federal refund but my check was short by 141.11 when I filed and after my fee deduction for Turbo Tax the refund was to be 738 but came back 596 Why?

You should verify if the amount of $738 agrees to the amount of your federal refund on your federal tax return. If it does, then the amount is before TurboTax fees and Refund Processing Service fees have been deducted.

If you chose to pay TurboTax with your federal refund, once the IRS reviews and approves your federal refund, the amount is sent to a third-party, who processes the TurboTax fees and the remaining amount is deposited into the bank account you provided. The state refund(s) must be reviewed and approved and will be sent directly from the state department(s) of revenue (no third-party is involved). Please review the following link(s) and the link(s) embedded on the webpage(s) for more information:

• How do I track my state refund? (You may use this link to track the status of state refund(s).)
• What is the Refund Processing Service?
• Who provides the Refund Processing Service?

You should be able to review your TurboTax order(s) by reviewing the following link:

• What did I pay last year for TurboTax? (If you chose to pay TurboTax with your federal refund (Refund Processing Service), the cost of the Refund Processing Service may not be included in your order details since this fee is not charged by TurboTax, it is charged by a third-party.)

Please see my edited answer. I added a couple sentences at the beginning that may provide a better explanation.
